WaZizJJ-S ALBERT CL COR SE, OF TROY, NEW YORK.

Letters Patent No. 90,331, dated May 18, 1869.

COOKING-STOVR The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ALBERT G. Consn, of the city of Troy, county of Rensselaer, and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Boilers, or Water-Tanks for Cooking-Stoves and I do hereby declare the following to be a full and clear description of the same, reference being hereby had to the accompanying drawings, which form and make a part of this my specification.

Like letters represent and refer to like or corresponding parts.

Figure 1 is a perspective view of a cooking-stove, containing my invention and improvements, more fully hereinafter described;

Figure 2 is a longitudinal section of said cookingstove;

Figure 3 is a back view of such stove, the position of reservoir being shown by dotted lines;

Figure 4 is a top View;

Figure 5 is a perspective view of said stove, with reservoir removed therefrom;

Figure 6 is a perspective view of the reservoir; and

Figure 7 is also a perspective view of a portion of said cooking-stove, showing the arrangement of flues and position of reservoir, as more fully hereinafter described and set forth.

The nature of my said invention consists in the construction and arrangement of a water reservoir, or water-tank for cooking-stoves, with a suitable cham her under and immediately below the bottom of the same, and the combining or connecting such reservoir, or tank with and to the rear end of a cookingstove, having and containing two vertical fines, to wit, one descending and one ascending, for the draught or escaping product of combustion, in the manner and by the means substantially as herein described and set forth.

To enable others skilled in the art to which my invention relates to make and use the same, I will here proceed to describe the construction and operation of the same, which is as follows, to wit:

My invention and improvements may be applied to any cooking-stove now in market, at very little cost or expense.

The reservoir A may be made of cast-iron, tin, or any other metal deemed best, and may be of any required size and shape.

The chamber, or flue B, underneath the same, may be cast with said reservoir, or boiler, and form a part thereof, or it may be made separate therefrom, and afterward attached or connected therewith.

This chamber, or fine B may be (if any size deemed best, and extend entirely under said reservoir A, or only a portion thereof, as required. I

The exit-flue, or pipe 0 may be in the back part of said reservoir, or boiler A, or on the outside thereof, as shown at fig. 1, in the accompanying drawings.

This exit-pipe, or line 0 opens into or starts fro the chamber B, as shown at fig. 2.

This reservoir A and chamber B may be attached to the back of any cooking-stove, having two vertical tlue's, one ascending and one descending, at any point or place, and in any manner desired.

My mode of attaching said reservoir, or boiler A-to such cooking-stove is as follows, to wit:

- I cast or attach to the side-plates of the stove D, figs. 1 and 5, flanges, or grooves E and E, same figures, and cast or otherwise attach to the reservoir, or boiler A, corresponding projections F and F, fig. 6,

so that when it is desired to attach the said reservoirv to the back of the stove, it can readily and easily be done, by sliding or passing the said projections F and F into the flanges, or grooves E and E, hereinbefore described.

Vhen the damper]) is closed, the products of com-- passes into the exit-pipe, or flue O, and from thence into, the chimney or open air.

But when the damper G is open, the heat and products of combustion pass directly under the reservoir, through the chamber B, and from thence into the exit-pipe.

The water in the reservoir, or boiler A is heated by the products of combustion passing directly underneath the same, through the chamber, or flue B, as herinbefore described.

. in the stove represented in the accompanying drawlugs, J is the fire-box, K the oven, and L the topplate thereof, and the circulation of the draught and construction of the stove described herein, is fully shown in the drawings accompanying this specification, and claims hereof.

Having thus described the nature of my said invention and improvements,

What l claim as new, and desire to secure by Letteis Patent of the-United States, is-- l. The reservoir, or water-tank A, containing the air-chamber B, the exit-pipe 0, arranged and combined therewith, substantially as herein described and set forth, in combination with a cooking-stove having two vertical fines in the rear end thereof, in the manner and for the purpose substantially as herein described and set forth.

2. Also, the arrangement and employment of the flanges, or grooves E and E, when used upon a cooking-stove, substantially as herein described, and

the reservoir, or water-tank A, in the manner sub in combination with the projections F and F, upon and for the purposes substantia and set forth.

stantially as herein-described and set forth. In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set my hand,
